The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are merely exemplary and intended to explain the present disclosure, and are not to be construed as limiting the present disclosure.
As shown in FIG. 1 , the embodiment provides a marine dynamic environment simulation test system and a test method. The system includes a test chamber 1, a seawater erosion unit, a climate simulation unit and a force loading device 5. The bottom of the test chamber 1 is provided with a simulated seabed structure model 2 for supporting a test piece 100. The seawater erosion unit includes a sedimentation tank 31 containing seawater and a circulation mechanism. The circulation mechanism is capable of making the seawater in the sedimentation tank 31 circulate in the sedimentation tank 31 and the test chamber 1 and controlling the water level and the flow rate of the seawater in the test chamber. The climate simulation unit is capable of performing at least one of ultraviolet irradiation, high temperature irradiation, sea wind simulation or rain or fog simulation on the test piece 100. The force loading device 5 is configured to load force in a preset direction on the test piece 100. Island reef infrastructure and subsea tunnels are in the marine environment for a long time, which has a serious impact on the structures and service life of the island reef infrastructure or the subsea tunnels. Therefore, it is necessary to research on the structure of the marine environment by using the system. Firstly, the test piece 100 is prepared according to the structures of the island reef infrastructure or the subsea tunnels, where the test piece 100 has the same composition and is produced by the same construction technology as the island reef infrastructure or the subsea tunnels; the required seawater is prepared in the sedimentation tank 31; then, the simulated seabed structure model 2 is arranged in the test chamber 1, where the simulated seabed structure model 2 has the same structure as the real seabed; the test piece 100 is arranged on the simulated seabed structure model 2; the test piece 100 is exposed to a seawater erosion environment; the test piece 100 is exposed to a preset climate environment; a loading test is performed on the test piece 100 through the force loading device 5, where the force loading device 5 may simulate the different loads on the island reef infrastructure or the subsea tunnels. Through the test system and the test method, the force loading test in the complex marine climate environment can be simulated, which is convenient for people to research on the island reef infrastructure or the subsea tunnels.
Optionally, multiple baffles 311 are sequentially disposed in the sedimentation tank 31, the multiple baffles 311 divide the sedimentation tank 31 into multiple accommodation cavities, and the multiple baffles 311 sequentially decrease in height in a vertical direction. In the embodiment, the multiple accommodation cavities have different heights. The circulation mechanism firstly injects the seawater into the accommodation cavity having the highest height, and the water level of the seawater gradually rises. When the water level reaches the height of the baffle 311, the seawater flows from one side of the baffle 311 to the next accommodation cavity, and then the seawater finally enters the accommodation cavity having the lowest height. At this time, the circulation mechanism sucks the seawater in the accommodation cavity having the lowest height into the test chamber 1. In this process, the silt in the seawater in each accommodation cavity gradually sinks, so that the seawater is purified. Preferably, since the seawater in the accommodation cavity having the highest height is the seawater which has just been pumped from the test chamber 1 and thus has more silt, so that more silt exists in the accommodation cavity having the highest height. For this reason, the bottom of the accommodation cavity having the highest height is provided with a sewage outlet which is generally in a closed state. When the sedimentation tank 31 is cleaned, the sewage outlet is opened, and the silt in the accommodation cavity having the highest height is cleaned through the sewage outlet. In other embodiments, the bottom of each accommodation cavity may be provided with a sewage outlet, respectively.
Optionally, the circulation mechanism includes a first water pump 321 and a second water pump 322. A water inlet of the first water pump 321 communicates with a water outlet of the test chamber 1, an accommodation cavity formed by the sedimentation tank 31 and a baffle 311 which is the highest in the vertical direction communicates with a water outlet of the first water pump 321, an accommodation cavity formed by the sedimentation tank 31 and a baffle 311 which is the lowest in the vertical direction communicates with a water inlet of the second water pump 322, and a water outlet of the second water pump 322 communicates with a water inlet of the sedimentation tank 31. In the embodiment, the water level and the flow rate in the test chamber 1 can be regulated by controlling the respective powers of the first water pump 321 and the second water pump 322. Specifically, the first water pump 321 is the same as the second water pump 322. When the first water pump 321 and the second water pump 322 has the same output power, the water level in the test chamber 1 remains constant, and the water flow rate can be adjusted according to the power of the first water pump 321 and the second water pump 322. When the output power of the first water pump 321 is greater than the output power of the second water pump 322, the water level in the test chamber 1 is in a falling state. When the output power of the first water pump 321 is less than the output power of the second water pump 322, the water level in the test chamber 1 is in a rising state. The marine environment can be simulated by adjusting the water level and the water flow in the test chamber 1. Specifically, the water inlet and water outlet of the test chamber 1 are arranged symmetrically to ensure that erosive ions in the seawater are uniformly distributed in the sample chamber. Optionally, the circulation mechanism further includes a water level sensor and a flow rate sensor, where the water level sensor and the flow rate sensor are both disposed in the test chamber 1 for respectively measuring the water level and the flow rate of the seawater in the test chamber 1.
Optionally, the marine dynamic environment simulation test system further includes multiple reaction force supports 6 and multiple silt filter plates 7. The multiple reaction force supports 6 respectively support the multiple silt filter plates 7 to make the multiple silt filter plates 7 form a test cavity, so that the test cavity encloses the test piece 100. In the embodiment, the reaction supports 6 support the corresponding silt filter plates 7, so that the silt filter plates 7 abut the test piece 100. The silt filter plates 7 allow the seawater to enter the test cavity while preventing the silt on the test piece 100 from leaking out through the silt filter plates 7.
Optionally, the climate simulation unit includes a rain and fog simulation mechanism 41. The rain and fog simulation mechanism 41 includes a water box 411, a third water pump 412 and a spray plate 413, the spray plate 413 is disposed in the test chamber 1 and located on the side of the test piece 100 away from the simulated seabed structure model 2, a water inlet of the third water pump 412 communicates with the water box 411, and a water outlet of the third water pump 412 communicates with the spray plate 413. In the embodiment, the third water pump 412 pumps the water in the water box 411 to the spray plate 413, and the spray plate 413 may spray rainwater or fog.
Optionally, the test chamber 1 is provided with two opposite vents. The climate simulation unit includes a sea wind simulation mechanism 42, where the sea wind simulation mechanism 42 includes a blower 421 and a duct 422, two ends of the duct 422 respectively communicate with the two vents of the test chamber 1, the two vents are respectively set as a trumpet shape, and the blower 421 is disposed at one of the two ends of the duct 422. In the embodiment, the duct 422 communicates with the two vents to form the circulation duct 422. The blower 421 is disposed at one end of the duct 422, and the blower 421 may generate circulation wind in the test chamber 1. Specifically, the two ends of the duct 422 are set as a trumpet shape, so that the wind speeds in the duct 422 are uniform and stable.

As shown in FIG. 2 , the embodiment further provides a test method performed through the marine dynamic environment simulation test system of any one of the preceding solutions. The test method includes steps described below.
In step 110, the seawater is prepared in the sedimentation tank 31.
Seawater is a very complex dielectric system, the buffer capacity of which depends on the association equilibrium of each ion pair. The major ion pairs existing in seawater include Ca, Mg, HCO3, CO3, HPO4, etc. Generally, artificial seawater is prepared by using a formulation.

The seawater is injected into the test chamber 1 to be flush with the bottom of the environmental box, and the test chamber 1 is allowed to stand for 24 hours to ensure the saturation state of the seabed structure model 2.
In step 130, the test piece 100 is arranged on the simulated seabed structure model 2.

In step 140, the test piece 100 is exposed to a marine erosion environment.
In this step, the seawater is injected to the test chamber 1 through the circulation mechanism, so that the part of the test piece 100 below the seawater level line is completely immersed in the seawater, and the test chamber 1 is allowed to stand for 24 hours to ensure that the test chamber 1 reaches the saturation state.
In step 150, the test piece 100 is exposed to a preset climate environment.
In this step, the climate simulation unit is adjusted according to the preset climate environment.
In step 160, a loading test is performed on the test piece 100 through the force loading device 5.
